Rio Six-Point Action Plan For the International Treaty: to establish a Platform for
the Co-Development and Transfer of Technologies, context of non-monetary
benefit-sharing under the Treaty.
1º Meeting Embrapa & IAARD Considered establishing a Platform.
2º Meeting Models of Technology Transfer that would be useful for
smallholder farmers.
5° Session Gouverning Body: Grouped activities under the
Platform under “supporting activities” to the
Programme of Work on Sustainable Use.

Social Technologies
Projects that focus on specific problems from farmers’ demands for adequate
solutions (SOCIALLY, ECOLOGICALLY AND ECONOMICALLY) to the local
conditions and, preferably, that are within DRS experiences or resulting from
them.

EMBRAPA’S TECHNOLOGIES
CERTIFIED BY THE BANK OF BRAZIL
FOUNDATION
LITTLE DAMS FOR CAPTURING
SURFACE WATER OF RAIN FALLSCertified, 2003 – Embrapa Maize and Sorghum
Small reservoirs that, besides providing better conditions for families in
rural areas, reduce environmental damage, especially erosion and
siltation. The wetting promoted by the System of Little Dams
(Barraginhas) in agricultural areas of lowland favors the development
of family agriculture, providing conditions for planting orchards,
sugarcane field and woodlands, as well as for raising small livestock.
BASIC SANITATION IN THE RURAL AREA
BIODIGESTOR ASEPTIC TANK Certified, 2003 – Embrapa Instrumentation
A system of biodigester aseptic tanks replaces the black pits at a
low cost for farmers, prevents contamination of soil and of
groundwater and prevents the spread of diseases caused by the
ingestion of water inappropriate for consumption.
PRODUCTION OF VARIETAL GRAINS BY
SMALL HOLDERS/FAMILY FARMERS Certified, 2003 – Embrapa Rice and Beans
Encouraging the production of grains for food security (rice, beans and maize),
in a sustainable way, without chemical inputs, using traditional varieties
(creole), preservation and restoration of local environmental resources (soil,
water) and reforestation with Cerrado-native fruit trees.
“PROSA RURAL” (RURAL TALK)
EMBRAPA´S RADIO PROGRAM
Certified, 2005 – Embrapa Technological Information
"Prosa Rural" is a 15-minutes long weekly program, retransmitted by more than
1,300 community, business and education radios in the North, Northeast,
South, Southeast and Midwest regions of Brazil. It discloses sustainable rural
development, especially researches applied in everyday life of smallholders.
EMBRAPA’S KIT FOR MANUAL MILKINGCertified, 2007 – Embrapa Dairy Cattle
Equipment, suitable materials and procedures which are an alternative to minimise
microbial contamination of milk due to manual milking, bringing, then, the production of
safe milk according to the sanitary and nutritional point of view of consumers.
The correct use of the kit enables the maintenance/inclusion of family-based dairy farmers
in the milk production chain with a product of good quality and better value. A booklet on
how to use the instruments and inputs properly and about milk storage is also part of the
kit.
FULL BUCKET – MILK PRODUCTIONCertified, 2009 – Embrapa Southeast Livestock
Technology transfer program that contributes to the implementation of dairy
production in family-based farms. The goal of the program is to train rural
extension workers and farmers, to promote the exchange of information on
technologies to be regionally applied and to monitor the environmental,
economic and social impacts in production systems that adopt the available
technologies.
MEDICINAL PLANTS:
AN ALTERNATIVE FOR SOCIAL INCLUSIONCertified, 2009 – Embrapa Eastern Amazon
The cultivation, conservation and use workshops for processing medicinal
plants offered to different communities brought new opportunities for increased
income, cost savings in the procurement of medicines, improved quality of life,
and has awaken the networking among members of each community.
SMALL MACHINES DEVELOPED FOR FAMILY-BASED
AGRICULTURE
Certified, 2013 – Embrapa Rice and Beans
Three rice threshers and three blowers of grains and seeds, intended to small producers
of rice, beans, maize and other grains.
FIELDS WITHOUT FIRE AND CASSAVA
PRODUCTIVITY TRIO
Certified, 2013 – Embrapa Eastern Amazon
"Fields without Fire" is the preparation of the area for planting without fire
using low-cost hand tools.
The "Productivity Trio" is the selection of cuttings-seeds, planting cassava in
1m x 1m spacing and shovelling during the first five months of the crop cycle.
Many workshops, meetings
and symposia help to keep the
contact between professional
and studends.
Genetic Resources
Created in 1997,
SIRGEALC brings
together scientists
from differents
countries to discuss
microbial, animal
and plants genetic
resousces, every
two years. It is the
biggest event on
genetic resouces in
the world, so far.

Portal Information
The Alelo Portal aims to gather information about genetic
resources. Besides the databases and information systems, it is
formed by websites that organize text information about the
system of curatorship and the terms and concepts of genetic
resources in Alelo databases.

An international initiative supported by different partners aiming to
link experts and institutions to develop cooperative research
projects for development.
Brazilian,
African,
Latin American and Caribbean.
The MKTPlace aims to benefit smallholder producers by enabling innovation through collaborative
partnerships between Africa, LAC and Brazil.
1) A policy dialogue between the main authorities from Africa, LAC and Brazil supporting institutions
focused on the development of a mutually agreed framework for collaboration;
2) A forum for capacity strengthening, presentation and discussion of research for development
ideas consolidated into research for development projects supported by the MKTPlace;
3) Joint agricultural research for development projects.
